NHO turns on wealth – Dagens Næringsliv

NHO top Kristin Skogen Lund realize that it may be politically impossible to get rid of all the wealth tax.

The article is added in your reading list.

Tax Debate debate on wealth tax has been high over the past half year. NHO has constantly been hard on that all wealth must away, and demanded in the summer at least a halving of tax already in next year’s budget. Fact was a cut from one to 0.85 percent.

Shortly after the state budget was presented, came tax committee report with proposals that will provide a competitive tax system. In the report, the wealth tax retained.

At a breakfast meeting organized by the think tank Civita opened Tuesday NHO Director Kristin Skogen Lund for a compromise where the most wealthy are taxed.

– There are two ways to do it: one is to tax asset as particularly expensive homes. The second is Right solution, which is a very high basic deductions, such as NOK 25 million – and a reduced rate, for example 0.5 percent. Then it is quite a few who pays, and there is a reduced load. It’s not perfect, but much of the damage to smaller businesses weeded out when, she says.
